This is not a problem unique to Affinity.  Happens with people using products from that evil subscription company too.
 
No.

I wonder why this thread is continuing … if you look at the previous releases you will see the following:
1.10.4 x October 2021
1.10.5 x March 2022
I think 5 months in between releases is more that adequate, anything less than that and we would be continually having issues. I think Affinity is doing the right thing in their development process without rushing to release.
I also think that we should use the correct product for the processes we undertake as I still see people using Photo for things better suited to Designer, etc.

Ragtime? 😁

Er, no they're not

The biggest problem is that most people only read the headline and then think they can add their two cents. What's even worse is that the majority are able to search for things on Amazon and Ebay, but in a support forum like this they suddenly get dementia and no longer know how to use the search function.

Can't be. I just used it an hour ago.

Once you said "yes, overwrite it" you should assume it's gone. One reasonable scenario is:
1. Ask to overwrite existing file.
2. If user responds yes, delete the existing file.
3. Write the new file.

You must remember that some of the effects you can create in Affinity are not definable in Adobe PSD hence when you EXPORT to a DIFFERENT system you must expect loss of INFORMATION if the feature does not have a COMPARABLE conversion available.
You should save in Affinity native afphoto format if you create something in Affinity Photo in the same way that you should save in Adobe native PSD format if you create something in Adobe. 
The addition of a PSD export is just a minor added feature in Affinity. A cross platform feature that Adobe do not do as there is no comparable Export in afphoto format in Adobe.

Thanks for answering AiDon.
I actually got the plugin working again by doing a complete shutdown and restart. Don't know why it didn't work the first time but all OK now.

Thanks AiDon. I got it straight away with this file. I'll get this logged  

Try this one Chris, under Windows OpenCL also selects both GPUs for hardware acceleration.
 
Sony ARW raw image.zip

Ok, shall do in 8 hours or so.

I've seen the flickering happen when a selection is active. It's much worse that on macOS where it's barely visible. The flickering will be from redrawing the canvas when switching personas. I imagine you might see it from zooming too?
I'll grab an uncompressed Sony raw file and see if I can repo - it may be worth attaching one too if you have one to share.

Hi Chris, In the latest version this blocking is there but only with OpenCL Acceleration turned on and ONLY with uncompressed RAW from Sony. Others such as CR2, CR3 and RAF seem to be OK now even with OpenCL Acceleration on.
Note: Screen refresh still flickers noticeably with OpenCL off.

Thanks @Alfred. We do have an Air 2 here and replicate the issue. Now logged. 

Worth its own topic? It seems rather hidden here in a topic that is (a) about a different problem and (b) marked "Solved"  

Seems to be a common problem with this release, me to Canon CR2 do the same with Serif Engine but ok with Apple Raw engine.

Hi, After the update to v1.10 I cannot display opened RAW images when using the Serif RAW engine. But the image can be opened using the Apple RAW engine

Hi Michael, I appreciate this is late, but it seems your crash will have been caused by the Capture One Explorer integration. 
You'll notice that Capture One is now listed in the "Issues caused by third party software" thread. NVIDIA are aware of the problem, and I think they may have released an updated driver which prevents the crash.
 

Thanks! That helped for me. AP repeatedly crashed as soon as I tried to load images into the HDR Tool. I also tried different file formats, wich didn't help.
Switching to WARP fixed the issue thought. Thank you.

@AiDon
Apologies for the error. Thanks for letting us know.

Not to all GPUs as even though the version is the same the drivers are customized for each GPU in a product series. For example, in my case, I download drivers specific to my GPU which is the GeForce Product Series: GeForce 10 Series (Notebooks), Product: GeForce GTX 1050.
But, in some cases, different products in a series can have the same installer.

Today, half an hour ago, Experience displayed that a new Driver is avaiable. It´s 471.11 from the 23.06.2021.
I installed it and now i must look what happens. I´m sorry, but at the time, when i posted the bug 462.59 from 11.05.2021 was the newest Driver.
I´m curious too about Experience.....
